    Hey all,

    The Author Pro is great, well thought out plugin. I am wondering, did anyone try to customize the Featured Book widget to display more than one book? It would be a great enhancement if Featured Book widget can be like Featured Post widget. The Featured Book widget can have a Category option (in lieu of Book Title option) and No. of books to show and No. of books to offset options. I wanted to use Featured Book widget to build my book publishing company website, but as I bring out multiple books every week, having a single widget for each book isn't all that conducive. Love to hear from anyone who went down this path. Thanks!

    To do that would require adding another option to the Genesis_Author_Pro_Widget class as well as editing the Genesis_Author_Pro_Widget_Output class and adding a custom form field to Genesis_Author_Pro_Widget_Admin class.

    If there where a filter applied to the plugins WP_Query, then it would possibly much easier.

    Brad - Thanks! I am not sure how exactly I resolved it, as it was a year ago. Here's my site with multiple author display: http://indianlit.org/books/
